If you have developed a mobile application, then it becomes essential to get a mobile app licensing agreement. A mobile app licensing agreement safeguards your intellectual property from being stolen, misused, forged or copied. This license is obligatory whether your app is built up for iPhones and iPads or Android phones and tablets. Initially, an End User License Agreement or EULA is required if you own a mobile application. EULA gives a detailed information about what a mobile user can and cannot do with your mobile app. All the responsibilities, rights and duties of a user are described in the EULA. It is a sort of written contract between the mobile app developer and a user of that app. The EULA is sometimes, also referred as a "Software License" and is very similar to a rental agreement. Under EULA, mobile application users agree to pay for the privileges of using a mobile application and to abide by all the terms and condition related to the usage of a mobile app. The user is asked to check "Accept" which signifies that he accepts all the terms and conditions mentioned in the EULA. However, the users do have the option of refusing to enter the agreement and ask for a refund of the payment made by him. Another type of license that is very important for you to obtain being a mobile app developer is "business-to-business geographic mobile app license". In case, you are experiencing difficulties in expanding your market beyond your country's international border, then it is sensible to look for a company who is willing to take your mobile app to the international market. However, in that case you will have to fork over the mobile app's license rights to that society. Regardless of what kind of license you get, it is very important to pay attention to the following points to safeguard your application from forgery and so on 1. What are the intellectual property rights that a user is going to get (If there are) 2. How many copies and the number of devices are covered in a single user agreement 3. The process through which the property theft claim would be handled and sorted out 4. If somehow, you are sued because of your mobile app, to which extent you can do the damage control What has to be included in the mobile app license agreement depends largely on the app you own and your purpose behind launching it. In any case, it is really an irrational idea to take someone else's agreement, do few modifications here and there and use it. It has very firm reasons and the most prominent one is that it might not give the level of protection; you are expecting for your newly developed app. Secondly, there may be a chance that by using someone other's license agreement, you are breaching the license of the person who is actually the developer of that user license. For this reason, I would suggest to consult some Internet attorney and narrate the things in a simplified manner. You can also consult a mobile application company and seek some recommendations on the license agreement that would suit your requirements. You can then make an agreement that encompasses all the aspects of your mobile app's security and safeguards it from time infinite.
